Bought a powerbook today from someone who works on our helpdesk. Shiny.

I’m obviously wrong on this, but I was under the impression that if you were convicted of something and prisoned then you were only elegible for probation if you showed remorse and could convince the authorities that you would not reoffend. Seems this is not the case.

Over easter, SWMBO has decided that the downstairs loo that we never use would actually be useful if it worked so we spent easter Monday traipsing around diy stores.

I’ve never tried a turkey twizzler [...]

Took a couple of days off this week. Of course, this causes sprogs to fall ill. Spent first half of week with sprog2 with a stomach bug and then sprog1 fall foul of it for the second half of the week.
Sprog2 was 4 on Wednesday. Party is tomorrow at Farming World so I hope he [...]
